As much as the business doesn't want to be wasting money, I don't want to be wasting my time on something that has a detrimental effect on our ability to get the job done.

If supporting older browsers is part of the specification then it has no impact on your ability to "get the job done" - supporting older browsers becomes a part of the job.

Which is very true, and as I stated if it's part of the spec, it's part of the spec, but I find it's a duty of the job to raise it as a concern and an area of risk for delivering the product on time, especially when starting out on a new product.
